    Kendrapara: A student of 15 years old jumped out of a moving automobile in Pattamundai in Odisha's Kendrapara district on Thursday, thwarting a kidnapping attempt, according to the police.

    The girl was walking home from the M N High School in the Kendrapara district at 11.20 a.m. after finishing a paper for the ongoing matriculation examination, according to the police.

    Three unknown criminals forced the girl into the car and stabbed her with a knife when she resisted. Even though she was injured in the wrists, legs, and neck, she fought back bravely and escaped the automobile by shattering a window, as reported by the police.—Inputs from Agencies
